Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I found only one major flaw (which is why I deducted the one star) from this otherwise pretty great trampoline. Practically the first thing you do during assembly is attach the net to the jumping surface by sliding the tabs through 20-30 holes. Everything else comes after this, including the springs, etc. It's really, really important you get this step right/perfect, or you'll have to undo all your work and start over. Seriously, important. So... I did it the right way, or so I thought. I found out after my trampoline was nearly complete that there was a mistake made at this point. But... was that my fault? The mistake is that the net was shipped "inside out". I know that's hard to imagine, and seems like it would have been totally obvious, but it's completely not obvious. Think of a sock that's turned inside out, but that there's no obvious difference in color/texture on the inside/outside. How would you really know? I spread the net out, lined up the slots, and began assembly. At that point, you have no idea what you're really looking at... it's one big jumble of net. And did the instructions call anything out like "make sure the net is right side out", "the safety label should face out", etc? NOPE. Not a single word. I scoured the instructions later looking for what I missed. Nothing. So, they shipped me a product that was setup for me to fail, and gave me no clue to watch out. Ouch. Did I disassemble the whole thing literally to step 1 and restart? Nope. Too much work (assembly took me about 60-90 minutes with a friend, I'd estimate). I wasn't going to more than double my time spent. The way I could tell it was backwards was that the attaching of the net to the tops of the poles is literally backwards... Duh! So I had to sort of twist them around to install, which felt weird -- obviously. THEN I noticed that the safety label was facing inward instead of outward. And the safety snap clips over the zipper door were on the inside, meaning jumpers would run into them all too easily. Ugh. So I just cut those safety straps off the net, and the twisted attachment of the net to the poles is fine (only awkward, not flawed) and can't be seen. With the safety straps removed, the only way you can tell my mistake is that the label is on the inside. But my kids don't care. So, there ya go. Fun trampoline that the kids love. Assembly was actually pretty decent, except for this one tiny huge gotcha. Beware. Make sure your net is correctly oriented before you start.
